19 Do not let lying foes rejoice over me,my undeserved enemies wink knowingly.
20 They speak no words of peace,but against the quiet in the landthey fashion deceitful speech.
21 They open wide their mouths against me.They say, “Aha! Good!Our eyes have seen it!”
22 You see this, Lord; do not be silent;Lord, do not withdraw from me.
23 Awake, be vigilant in my defense,in my cause, my God and my Lord.
24 Defend me because you are just, Lord;my God, do not let them rejoice over me.
25 Do not let them say in their hearts,“Aha! Our soul!”Do not let them say,“We have devoured that one!”
